Miller opens up on new feeling within Mike Sullivan’s team"},"content":{"rendered":"

Riding a season-high four-game win streak in the 2025-26 NHL campaign, the New York Rangers<\/a> look like a brand new team. J.T. Miller admitted just that as he returned to the lineup to find Mike Sullivan has managed to weather the storm and change the tune for the Broadway Blueshirts.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a good feeling around here right now,\u201d Miller<\/a> said, via NHL.com<\/a> and NY Hockey Insider. \u201cNow we\u2019re on the right side of things, but we don\u2019t want to get comfortable with that. We want to keep going and string as many together as we can here. There\u2019s a lot to like right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Miller was still on Injured Reserve (IR) when New York began its sudden rise in the NHL. In his first game back, Miller could see firsthand everything that had been clicking for the Rangers. Sullivan<\/a> and the Blueshirts are playing with heart once again, and the captain is now active to help on the ice, as well.<\/p>\n

Some fans expressed concerns about the captain, with many believing the Blueshirts were better off without him. However, as he returned to the lineup\u2014his first game since March 2\u2014the Rangers continued to ride their wave of momentum, securing their fourth straight victory.<\/p>\n

Despite his ice-time of 19:15 minutes\u2014the third most time out of every forward on the team\u2014Miller had quite an uneventful night during the Rangers\u2019 visit to the Minnesota Wild. The captain only recorded one shot on goal, putting up no points. New York did just fine, though. <\/p>\n

Securing the 4\u20132 win means the Blueshirts are one victory away from stringing together five straight wins. Such a feat hasn\u2019t been accomplished by New York since the 2023\u201324 NHL season. <\/p>\n

Needless to say, the winds of change are blowing through the Big Apple, where Sullivan has seemingly found his footing and the Blueshirts are trending upward. This season is well out of reach, but the building blocks are being put in place for the Rangers moving forward.<\/p>\n
